You left the water running


1, 2, 3, play

You left on the water running
When you left me behind, baby now
You left all the water running
It's running from these eyes of mine

Baby now that
You turned out the light of love
You left with another guy, honey that me
You turned off all your love for me
But you forgot to turn off the cry
Ooh, forgot to turn off the cry

Baby now that
You pull the shades way down low
And disconnect the telephone
But baby these tears are running from my eyes
I can't turn 'em off and on

Now baby now that
You left on the water running
When you left me behind, let me tell you
That you left all that water running
It's running from these eyes of mine

And now you go
You locked the door
And then you throw the key away, baby now that
You'll regret, baby, you'll be upset, now
When you get your water bill to pay, ooh
When you get that water bill to pay

Honey now that
You left all the water running
When you left me behind, let me tell you
That you left, ooh, the water running
It's running from these eyes of mine

Baby now that
You left, ooh, the water running
Running from these eyes of mine, baby now that
You left all the water running
When you left me behind...

Biografia

Redding nacque nella cittadina di Dawson in Georgia. Quando aveva cinque anni la sua famiglia si trasferì a Macon, sempre in Georgia. Cantava nel coro della Chiesa Battista di Vineville e divenne una specie di celebrità locale vincendo il concorso per giovani talenti del sabato sera per quindici settimane consecutive. Nel 1960 Redding iniziò a girare il Sud insieme a Johnny Jenkins e i Pinetoppers. Quello stesso anno incise i suoi primi dischi, She's All Right e Shout Banalana, con questo gruppo, col nome di "Otis and The Shooters". Nel 1962 lasciò la sua prima traccia sulla scena discografica durante una sessione di registrazione di Johnny Jenkins, incidendo These Arms of Mine, una ballata composta da Redding stesso. La canzone divenne un piccolo successo della Volt Records, una sussidiaria della famosa etichetta del "Southern soul" Stax, di Memphis nel Tennessee. Suo manager era Phil Walden, anch'egli di Macon, che in seguito fondò la Capricorn Records. Otis Redding continuò a
